The present work is undertaken as part of research studies aiming to provide sociotechnical systems with a decision-making tool that supports them in assessing the resilience of their processes. The ultimate objective is to fix the identified imperfections in order to steadily gain strength and effectiveness to cope with new and existing threats and challenges.…

This paper showcases our previous and continuously improving development at Ateneo Innovation Center (AIC) and partners in designing and further enhancing the existing Low-cost Phototherapy Light System (LPLS) and Improved Low-cost Phototherapy Light System (ILPLS) to the new Smart Low-cost Phototherapy Light System (Smart LPLS) with non-invasive jaundice monitoring for newborns with Neonatal Jaundice (NNJ).…

Due to pandemic spreads of COVID-19 and increasing populations of se- niors, exercises or performance practices at home have become important to maintain healthy lives around the world. World Health Organization (WHO) has announced the physical health determines the Quality of Life (QoL) of a human. Unfortunately, a lot of people have no exercise and…

The adoption of Engine-in-the-loop technology shows real behaviour. This study presents a test runs simulation platform with real engine data. In addition, a test bench model is a demand approach that offers a significant potential to provide an excellent reproducibility of test runs. The platform includes the data integration to upgrade tests run and a…

A precise modelling plant system is substantial to improve the design of the DC motor controller, where a low accurate model may cause an unacceptable controller system. This study presents a hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) system for design a high speed motor data acquisition system (HSMDAQS) and injected collected data (ICD) Simulink model to estimate accurately the…

After studying the aviation problems in Iraq, on one hand, and because Iraq has various weather characteristics due to its different terrains (i.e. mountains, plain fields, and deserts). We discussed these problems with pilots and aviation specialists, and came to the conclusion that the main offset faced is vision deficiency is foggy and dusty weather.…

In this paper, we present a new method to deduce minimal cut sets depending on the minimal path sets of the complex systems (networks) to generate the Incidence Matrix, and then compared it with the truth table of the system. This comparison, based on some algebraic properties, gives minimal-cut sets of the complex network with…

This paper highlights the importance of on-campus online job recruitment system and its role in helping students grab the available job opportunities. It highlights the problems associated with the traditional way of hiring, especially for college students. It also presents some findings and results obtained through various surveys conducted within the campus before and after…

This paper extends the gamification interactive typing for Primary School Visually Impaired in Indonesia with some development according to previous user’s feedback. This study focuses in to renew the application and evaluate the updated application for visually impaired children developed by utility Unity software. Besides, standards of good gamification are worthy of study and can…

In recent years, the transport of large packages with super weight from 100 tons to several thousand tons is no longer a difficult problem due to the continuous development of technology. Experienced transport companies, specializing in transporting heavy goods in Vietnam, have invested in very modern equipment and machinery such as self-propelled trailers of Cometto…

Estimation of displacement is an information required for daily operation monitoring systems to monitor human health or to locate users in buildings, basements, tunnels and similar places which under the same conditions that the global positioning signal (GPS) level is from very weak to completely absent; and is the measurement technique by using multimetric data…

Cloud computing is the development of information technology to provides resources that can be accessed through network. Security and privacy in cloud computing are major concern for companies. Therefore, cloud computing architecture strategy and design are needed to reduce costs and ensure the security of company assets in cloud computing. In this study, we are…

The insulation condition of a transformer decides the longevity of the equipment. The unpredicted failure of power transformer will lead to major disaster in the distribution network and it affects both environment and public safety. Nowadays synthetic oil and natural esters are alternatives to transformer oil because of the biodegradable nature. In this paper, investigations…

This paper deals with a multi closed-loop adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) design for the under-actuated quadrotor systems. First, the training data set for the fuzzy inference system is obtained using a proportional integral derivative controller. Then, an initial ANFIS controller is designed, where the integral control action is preserved in the multi-closed-cloop ANFIS for…

Age and growth are two essential rice biophysics parameters used to determine the health parameters and production rate. The spatial data of both parameters can utilize remote sensing technology, which in turn makes use of several vegetation indices to achieve accurate estimation. However, due to the rapid changes in rice plants’ characteristics, it is essential…

Crowdwork is a system that brings job providers and crowdworkers in a portal. Nowadays, many companies are turning to freelancing rather than hiring full-time employees. In addition, the workers have also switched to working as freelancers. New problems also arise in the crowdwork system. Trust is one of the main issues that arise in the…
